Day 21

Callum loves to help with anything, so he was excited about helping wrap the gifts. I usually like to do gift bags only, but I've gotten better about using wrapping paper.

Day 20

Today we decided to try making cookies from scratch and I've learned it's better to stick with the pre-made:) We had fun making them, but they didn't turn out the way I thought they would.

Day 19

Today was a special day for me. I don't get to spend a lot of one on one time with Callum, so I was excited to have a movie date with him. We saw Tangled and he loved it. We laughed through the whole movie. And of course he loved the popcorn.

Day 18

Tonight we decided to go look at some Christmas lights. We only went around our neighborhood because Asher is teething, coughing, etc. He was pretty fussy, so we did a short trip.

Day 17

I wanted him to do a finger painting Christmas tree, but he wanted to use a paintbrush. He's so independent.

He had a little bit too much fun with the glitter.


Finishing project! He did a great job!

Day 16

This activity was a fun and tough one for him. He wanted to eat all of the candy so bad and he snuck a couple of pieces.

Day 15

Today was Callum's Christmas party at school. They decorated cookies and exchanged books. He didn't want to give up his Llama llama red pajama book, but he got a new book.
